The inner raceway 3 is provided at the butting portion of the two halves 7a and 7b. However, since each of the balls 5 comes into contact with the inner raceway 3 with a contact angle indicated by a chain line a, the rolling surface of each of the balls 5 does not contact the mating surface of the two halves 7a and 7b. .

However, in the case of a rolling bearing such as a ball bearing and a roller bearing configured as described above, there are the following points to be solved. That is, when the inner rings 4, 4a are rotated at high speed together with the rotating shaft of a high-speed rotating machine incorporating rolling bearings, a tensile force is applied to the inner rings 4, 4a in the circumferential direction based on centrifugal force.

Based on this pulling force, the inner rings 4, 4
Stress concentration occurs in the oil passage holes 9, 9a, 10, 10a formed in a. In the case of a conventional rolling bearing, since the cross-sectional shape of each of the oil passage holes 9, 9a, 10, 10a is circular, the stress concentration is remarkable, and the inner ring 4, 4a is rotated at high speed for a long time. Had a possibility of causing defects such as cracks. For this reason, conventionally, the rotation speed of the inner rings 4, 4a is
At present, the above defects are suppressed to the extent that they do not occur.
In the case of the grooves 8 provided in the ball bearings of FIGS. 8 to 10, the stress concentration as described above does not easily occur, but the oil supply passage formed by the grooves 8 is provided only on the mating surface between the halves 7a and 7b. And cannot be used in place of the oil holes 9, 9a, 10, 10a.

In the above description, the stress concentration caused by the cross-sectional shape of the oil passage holes 9, 9a, 10 and 10a for passing the lubricating oil has been described. It also occurs in holes other than oil passage holes. That is, in order to measure the temperature of the inner ring 4 during operation, the inner ring 4 has a concave hole 1 as shown in FIG.
4 and 14 and a temperature sensor may be installed in the concave holes 14 and 14 in some cases. In the case of a conventional rolling bearing, since the cross-sectional shape of the concave holes 14 is circular like the oil passage hole, the above-described stress concentration occurs. The rolling bearing of the present invention has been invented in view of such circumstances.

FIG. 6 shows a fourth embodiment of the present invention. In the case of this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the oil passage hole 13c is a long ellipse in which semi-elliptical arc portions at both ends are connected by a straight line portion. Then, the length of the oil passage hole 13c is set to L 3
And when the width dimension is W 3 , L 3 = (1.2 to
4.5) W to 3 to become like, it regulates both of these dimensions L 3, W 3. By regulating the cross-sectional shape of the oil passage hole 13c in this manner, as compared with the case where the oil passage hole radius is a circle hole is W 3/2, the stress concentration occurring in each oil passing hole 13c portion, It is relaxed to about 90 to 60%, and the high-speed rotation of the inner ring 12 becomes possible by that much.

FIG. 7 shows a fifth embodiment of the present invention. In the case of the present embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the oil passage hole 13 d is a long rectangle that is long in the circumferential direction of the inner ring 12. The four corners of the rectangle are arc portions having a radius of curvature r. And the oil hole 1

By regulating the cross-sectional shape of the oil passage hole 13d in this manner, as compared with the case where the oil passage hole radius is a circle hole is W 4/2,
The stress concentration occurring in each oil passage hole 13d is approximately 90 to
This is reduced to about 60%, and the inner ring 12 can be rotated at a high speed by that much.
